The Air Tattoo is the biggest airshow in Europe, and winning this trophy is a big reward. Team leader Maj Stefano Vit said, "It is really a great honour for me and for all the team, because it's a special trophy. The Italian Air Force's Frecce Tricolori aerobatic team of 10 Aermacchi AT-339A jet trainers, regulars at the Air Tattoo, won the RAFCTE Trophy, awarded to the best flying demonstration by an overseas participant. "Thank you for your attention, wonderful Air Tattoo. "I will say only one thing", commented Bulavka. The Paul Bowen Trophy for the best solo jet display (named in honour of the late Paul Bowen, co-founder of the Air Tattoo) was won by Lt Col Yurii Bulavka, pilot of the Sukhoi Su-27P1M from the 831st Guards Tactical Aviation Brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force. Nevertheless, prize winners in 2019 were chosen at the after-show party on Sunday.
It is often hard to compare one excellent performance with another and many will have their own, different, favourites.
Every year, the show awards prizes to the displays that have excelled.
